The Super Bowl is the day after tomorrow. Being a native New Orleanian and diehard Saints fan, I’m still depressed. If you don’t know why, what rock have you been under? It was just the worst thing not only to happen in NFL history, but in WORLD history! Anyway, being depressed or not I… Continue reading Los Jefes, Metairie, LA Report #173

La Providencia, Gretna, LA Report #160
My favorite Mexican Restaurant on the Westbank is El Paso (Report #9). I passed this place a thousand times and thought about trying it out, and tonight I finally did. Like any other Mexican place they start you out with chips and salsa. The chips were very crisp and fresh, and the salsa… Continue reading La Providencia, Gretna, LA Report #160
El Patron Mexican Grill & Cantina, Gretna, LA Report #131
When I moved to the Westbank about 21 years ago, El Paso (Report #9), soon became my favorite place for Tex-Mex cuisine. For awhile now I’ve been hearing El Patron was very good so I figured I’d give it a try. Pretty little place, with a nice outdoor dining area with ceiling fans blazing… Continue reading El Patron Mexican Grill & Cantina, Gretna, LA Report #131
Los Panchos Mexican Food, Terrytown, LA Report #93
In honor of Cinco De Mayo I had to eat some Tex-Mex food today! My favorite place for that type of cuisine is El Paso (Report #9). But on Cinco De Mayo, an illegal alien would have a better chance of getting into Trump Tower than I would have getting into that place. It’s… Continue reading Los Panchos Mexican Food, Terrytown, LA Report #93
El Mesquite Grill, Gretna, LA Report #60
I’ve been to this place twice before. Once maybe 11 years ago and then again maybe 10 years ago. That last visit we made the mistake of going there on Mardi Gras night. If you’re in the New Orleans metro area you NEVER go out to eat on Mardi Gras night. The cooks,… Continue reading El Mesquite Grill, Gretna, LA Report #60
La Fiesta, Gretna, LA Report # 33
This may have been the first good Mexican restaurant I discovered when I moved to the Westbank of New Orleans in 1997. Talk about a hole in the wall though. They have 5 parking spots out front. That dining room pic is the entire dining room minus one table and three booths, one of… Continue reading La Fiesta, Gretna, LA Report # 33
El Paso Mexican Grill, New Orleans, LA Report #9
This place is in a building that used to be a Bennigan’s a LONG time ago. I’m not sure Bennigan’s still exist anywhere, which has nothing to do with this report so I don’t really care. Sometimes I feel that once you’ve been to one Mexican restaurant (American style Mexican food that is, not… Continue reading El Paso Mexican Grill, New Orleans, LA Report #9
